In the course of an able and extended
article upon the Miller cattle industry
bill, taken from the northwestern
Live Stock Journal, that paper advo.
Gates the passage Of the bill at the ear
liest opportunity and to that eni de-
sires that all oposition should be with
drawn aud that no kicking be indul-
ged in. The editorial in question
winds up as follows. "Who among
our western ranchmen can afford to be
pointed out rs one of the kickers By
whose influence Congress was induced
to withhold action on this vital ques-
tion until the scourge had swept over
our plains and left them great fields Of
pestilence from the millions of putrid
carcssses everywhere present ? This is
not very pleasant picture to call up
to our vision, but this is exactly what
we will all have to look upon, sooner
or later, If the proper forces are not
set to work to stay the on-coming
flood Of disease. The history of the
spread of pleuro-pneumonia in Austria.
liza and Africa but few years since
iustifies us in saying that if one dis.
eased COW should be turned on the
open ranges OF the Yellowstone, in
Montana, eighteen months would not
elapse before the germs would be car
ried to the Gulf Of Mexico and the
open country between be one vast area
of death dealing putrescence from
which all animal life would have TO
fly. The many objections raised in
the past by congressional constitute
onal sticklers and the open war on all
efforts to secure national Legislation
touching cattle matters, should warn
US that the country west Of the
Missouri river should be a
unit on this question. We
cannot afford To Indulge in the luxury
Of ditierenc,s oi opinion oD 81 vital n
matter There are enough local Issues
for Us 10 dispute over and cultivate
our habits of thought, without endau.
gering our firesides by discussions On
this measure Of general protection.
Should Colorado. New Mexico and
Texas pull off, as is threatened, aud
use their influence 10 defeat the pend.
ing legislation, there is room for lear
that they msy succeed in leaving the
country open to the inroads of disease.
In that case the responsibility will be
on their heads. And a fearful re-
sponsihility II il. One that person
would stop and contemplate before as
suming. Let Us make a long pull, a
strong pull and pull all together and
we will pull bill through Congress
that will relieve the country from the
incubus that now rests upon II and

A Remarkable Case.

A somewhat remar kable decease oc>
Cured in Davenport last evening. A
young man named Hanson has been
driving bakery wagon there of late
As this man WAS going his rounds in
West Davenport yesterday afternoon he
drove to customer on West Third street,
near Ainsworth, and then got into his
wagon and started for the next place.
Before he got there he was dead He fell
over in his wagon unseen by any one and
the horse turned up Ainsworth street and
walked to the residence of B. Finger,
where he stopped, as was his usual GUS
some time it was discovered that no one
appeared to be driving and a passer-by
looking into the wagon saw Hansen lying
there. A physician was called, and Cor
oner McCortney notified An examina-
ton showed that life was extinct Dr.
Miller informed the coroner that he had
been treating Hansen for long time;
that he had consumption and that death
had been expected in the not far distant
future, as the disease had made great in
roads upon the health and strength of the
patient. Under the circumstances Coro.
ner McCortuey considered an inquest un-
necessary.
Rock Island daily Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1886-1893, 1887-11-11

Last night shortly after the ferry h ad
retired for the night, a stranger jumped
off the dock on the Davenport side, with
the deliberate intention of drowning
himself A citizen was on the dock at
the time, and immediately seized the man
and pulled him out. The stranger POI
litely thanked his rescner, said he would
take another trip soon and walked off.
His actions were so strange that it
seemed probable that he was not exactly
correct in the mechanism of his upper
story 1t must certainly have been a
source of aggravaiion TO him to get into
the icy cold water and have TO almost
freeze to death before getting his wet and
chilly clothes off, and still not have the
satisfaction of dying, if there be any sat>
isfaCtion in death. Such an experience
ought to make man refrain from taking
the chance of undergoing second disap-
pointment and cure him from his foolish
propensity of trying to die until his time
comes

The Nearest Travelled Route.

A question which has been long in dis
pute in Rock Island. is one as to which,
according to the meaning of the statute,
is the nearest justice of the peace to JUS
tlce Bennett-Justice Cooke or Justice
Halves. The statutes provide that
where change of venue is taken from q
Justices court, it shall be to the nearest
Justice of the peace-by the nearest
travelled route. The question of dispute
hangs on the meaning of the phrase
travelled route" In one sense, Justice
Cookies Office is nearer Justice Bennett's
and in another Justice Halves office Is i.
If the straightest cut be taken, Justice
Cookies office is decidedly nesrer, while
if the foot walk is followed, Justice
Hawes' office is nearer. The Shehan case
now before Justice Cooke has revived
this matter of dispute The case was
commenced before Justice Bennett, but a
change of venue was asked for, and JUS
tiee Bennett sent it to Justice Cooke
Mr.. McEniry, Shehan's counsel. thinks il
should have gone to Justice Halves, and
will test the legality of the point before
Judge Peasants The outcome will be
watched with good deal of interest

Immediately after the supreme court
gave ont its ruling on the appeal from
Judge Gary's court in the anarchist case.
the ARGUS published a column and a
half of local sentiment on the subject
the opinions of representative citizens
lawyers, doctors, merchants and manu-
facturers. Almost unanimous was the
mani fesiation of approval of the SUI
preme courts action. Today the same is
true of Governor Oglesbys stand. The
fact that Judge Gary and States Attorney
Grinnell had interposed in behalf of
Fielder and Schwab, is believed to be
good grounds for the governors moditi>
cation of their sentences. The only re-
gret in Rock Island SCENE to be that
Lingg should have cheated the gallows-
he, of all Others, should have been stran>
gled by the machine of Justice. Al.
together, Governor Oglesby' decision is
very popular in Rock Island.

and the Topeka Capital had this to say of
the concert:
The entertainment given by the Stew

every respect, and the pleasure of the in ,
telligent and appreciatve audience was
evinced by repeated calls Several mem
bers of the company have been singing
in public for several years, and have &C =
quired the confidence necessary to make
every thing pass off smoothly. Their
confidence in their power to please is
well founded. as all have excellent and
well cultivated voices The accompani-
ments on piano and organ were all that
could be desired.

BALL NOTES

There is talk of another game to be
played on Sylvan island tomorrow.
1t is rather late in the season for out
of door sports but as long as the weather
does not object humanity ought not.
On Saturday. November 18th, the ST
Louis Sporting Mems will publish mon
ster Northwestern League edition. It
will contain sketch of every player who
took part in last years games, portraits
of fifty players and the official batting
and fielding averages just issued by Sec
rotary Morton.
In re; Sage VS.. Cunningham verdict
in favor Of Sage.
We repeat for the benefit of a few who
may not be aware of the fact that "Mo-
line may do a great many things, but she
can't play base ball.
Wonder if Cunningham would object
if the Brooklyn management did moi
hear about that game yesterday.
Every ball player has his day.
Yesterdays game demonstrated thai
with combination of the best players
of the Central Cities and Rock Island nine
the city can present u pretty strong ag'
gregation of base ball players. All tina
is needed is a catcher and short stop
Sage, of course, will be obliged to pls,
with the Des Moines club with which
he is again signed next season. Tn
Rock Island club has always been crit.
cally weak between second and thirt
